This is turning hotel loyalty on its head.

Normally, you're paying for the nights, points, and benefits by throwing the chain and its participating hotels incremental business. Room rates shouldn't be higher, though. For its non-MMS hotels, Hyatt even has a BRG (which isn't just for show; I still get claims accepted every now and then).
